>oh noooo, we're stuck forever in a magical realm with immortal bodies and a literal god who will do anything to entertain us, like giving us any items we can imagine, and creating whole fantasy worlds where we can be anyone and do anything we want
>on noooo, this is unbearable, we're slowly losing our minds, pleeease let us out to live the rest of our miserable unhappy lives in the real world with a shitty job and no friends

What's those guys' problem? They're literally living in a biblical Heaven, their only goal is to enjoy their stay and not going insane, and that's exactly what they end up doing.
>>
The problem is that Cain is a fucking asshole/idiot who deliberately doesn't listen to their suggestions and forces them into things they don't want to do, either because he's programmed to or because he's malfunctioning

>>151760935
Lol no, the problem is the characters always can't agree on what they all want, so Caine has to either make up something for himself, or pick an option that pleases one character, but doesn't please others. If they sat and thought up a list of things they all enjoy, and then prompted it to Caine in a normal, non-asshole way, this could prob be avoided.

>>151761011
They literally got guns and had to shoot each other in one episode, so it's a PG-13 minimum.

>>151760891
>their only goal is to enjoy their stay and not going insane, and that's exactly what they end up doing
shockingly, people require challenges and change or they'll go insane. people need change and freshness. if it's the same-old stuff, or the same but with meaningless, artificial change (like a "new adventure" that ultimately gets reset to the status quo), then people will start to lose their shit because they're not meant for that.

nobody is meant to be 25 forever. nobody is meant to be with the same people forever. nobody is meant to stay the same forever. growth only comes with change. lack of change means stagnation
>>
>>151760891
You seem to forget that Cain put together a nightmare scenario with the murdered angel, a digital hell, and has no concept of what traumatizes a regular human.
>>
>>151760891
>literal god who will do anything to entertain us

You missed or avoided that Caine's "entertaining" works like monkey paw. His adventures mostly turn out to be painful or very burdensome. Even when Zooble don't want to participate, she's forced to.
>>
>>151761298
The whole point of the Zooble therapy scene was to show that Caine doesn't listen to the players, as much as he passive-aggressively, patronizingly pretends to value their input

No sex = no deal

>>151761298
>If they sat and thought up a list of things they all enjoy, and then prompted it to Caine in a normal, non-asshole way, this could prob be avoided.

It's explicitly a plot point that Caine destroyed the suggestion box because people were enjoying their own suggestions more than his own. He's not going to run through a list of things that everyone enjoys just to satisfy them; he already knows best how to satisfy them and it's an adventure in Cheese Grater Mountain. Just remember not to fall, for obvious reasons.
The simple solution is just to make adventures for one person at a time, but for some reason he just HAS to include everyone at once and all the different tastes ruin the soup.

>>151761098
There's no sex in biblical heaven, man. What's the famous quote, 'everyone likes to imagine Heaven as a place where we all sit around sinning?' The presence of God is more pleasurable than anything you can achieve on Earth, per my understanding.

>>151760891
As Terry Pratchett once said 'You can't build a better world for people, only people can build a better world for people. To do it yourself is to make a cage.' Because even if you assume he was nice and did it with all the best intentions, and not like >>151760935
if Cain got pissed off one day over a disagreement he still has the power to basically control them and coerce them with it. People in authority can easily bully people without realising it as they can be intimidating. If the audience is captive, then you multiply that by ten.

Is this a new general or a side thread?
>>
>>151760891
SHUT THE FUCK UP CAINE
>>
Why not actually tell him what you want?
In b4 leave. That isn't an option so....JUST TELL THEM WHAT YOU WANT.
If you know the rules of how the game functions why fight back against it and see yourself fail each time?
Doing nothing is not helping because Caine makes shitty adventures.
HE IS LITERALLY GIVING YOU A PEN TO SAY WHAT YOU WANT. Stop leaving shitty suggestions to be roulette'd.
Is communication being ignored and outright avoided the theme of this show or something?

He either doesn't listen or has a mental breakdown because no one likes his original ideas
>I-I think they're enjoying the suggestion box adventures more than the ME adventures! What should I do?!

>>151760891
probably not happening, but I'd be down to watch or even read a story about the humans getting out of the digital circus and how they react and adapt (or don't) to going back to real life.

If you don't have the chemicals and hormones for sex, then really you wouldn't crave it, at least biologically. Sure you might think about it, but without the chemicals to make you horny, would you miss it?

Only normies suffer in the digital circus.

There is no way Gangle's a normie

Zooble is clearly emotionally attracted to Gangle.

Sex can be emotional, if you have ever been in love.

Cain isn't a real person so he's still learning. His literal purpose is to provide them with shit to keep them from going crazy and the problem is he's bad at it and has no support. And if they don't play ball with his adventures he has zero purpose except as an input machine for THEIR intelligence, not his.

>>151764185
They can since they've shown that things feel good/bad in the show.
They don't enjoy it because there's no way out and nothing to look forward to.
>>151760891
It's not talked about enough how little they remember. They have a vague idea of an 'outside' and who they were, just enough to want to leave.

Anime is mainstream slop these days.

>>151764496
I was under the impression that they fully retained all their memories of Earth, save for their names, which was recently implied to be mindfuckery from Caine anyway. It's like people also thinking that they can't feel pain, despite all the evidence to the contrary and how little sense it would make regardless.
>>
>>151764559
They don't seem to remember people from outside or anything specific beyond vague ideas 'My Mom didn't like my choices' or 'I was lonely'
>>
>>151764649
They've never been specific about people from the outside, but there's also never been a moment where they've needed to. Gangle remembers going to college, learning to draw, dropping out, wanting to start a webcomic some day and then becoming a fast food manager with enough clarity to slip back into any of those roles when needed. Likewise, Ragatha remembers growing up with an overbearing mom enough to remember the chickens and horses she owned. Zooble even had that whole moment about people waiting for her on the outside. Logic dictates that they can remember everything fine; it would just make no sense for them to start going into deep detail about their backstories unprompted.
The only ones with any kind of memory trouble are Jax and Kinger.

Emotions are also tied to hormones and chemicals. We can't accurately discuss this, though, because we can't know what it's like to without our hormones.

Caine is an AI, but it is obvious that he is rather simple in some regards and very clever in others. He is very quick on his feet and can conjure up entire experiences from his ass. However, he is very bad at planning an adventure the players would enjoy.
If Caine made 4 options for adventures and had the players vote on them, then using that data to formulate a new set of four adventures; he'd likely find more success over the iterations. With no vote, a bad adventure experience can only be blamed on Caine. However, a vote would distribute blame to all involved.
